  1. Please recommend long pips rubber for me!

    I am reading the quote in your signature: "Technique is at least 10 times more important than the equipment....." I see how that is panning out.
  2. Cheap alternative to D05?

    But it is worth mentioning, Mike Landers' recommendation to me, for the -- roll the ball off the table, loop it -- practice for working on looping half long balls was to use any cheap racket till I had the trajectory of the stroke sorted so I wouldn't hit the table. I think his main reasoning...
  3. Cheap alternative to D05?

    Yep. Agree with all this and you are 100% correct that the guy who borrowed my racket had never done that before and I would be he has never done it since. Just with my racket.... :)
  4. Cheap alternative to D05?

    Yep. But Mike Landers did do that training with me where he was rolling the ball from the net off the table and I was trying to loop the ball as it was rolling, just before it went off the end of the table. His recommendation for that particular training was to use any cheap racket that you...
  5. Cheap alternative to D05?

    Are you using the technique where someone rolls the ball towards the end of the table and you loop it as it gets to the edge of the table so you have the stroke measured to take the shot with the ball about to hit the table? If not, it would be worth training it that way since the issue with...

    So, Tony, I asked TensorBH not to comment on the bet about differences between different versions of H3. I am asking you to do the same. I know you were just explaining where Rxton 9 fits in and why, for some it may a worth trying out. So, I get that. I just want to be fair on that subject...

    And this is what I am going to say: if it is on the subject of some kind of bet about H3 with Tony, for you and for Tony, no more comments in this thread. You guys can do that in PMs if you really want to make a bet. So, regardless of what, if it is about a bet with Tony and the subject is...

    And so you have continued to drag out the point over and over for pages because.....what? Is there a reason you can't let something drop and not get the last word? I see this: Is that not where it started: a $17.75 H3 vs a #22 sponge National H3? Is there even a reason to get to the...

    This is how Wang Chen explained it to me years ago: "At your level, it won't make much difference if you used H3N, H3P or H3C. But to _______, IT WILL MAKE A BIG ENOUGH DIFFERENCE THAT IT IS WORTH IT, for him." She was referring to a specific player who was maybe 1800-1900 but had very good FH...

    You are amazing. So, first you want a time limit of 15 seconds and now the comparison is the one you choose not the one originally stated. You know you are never going to make the bet in the first place. You know you are just wasting people's time since you really are trying to fix things...

    This is you continuing to be blind and obnoxious. YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT ANYONE ELSE FEELS, SO TO TELL TONY THE DIFFERENCE HE FEELS IS NOT WHAT HE SAYS BECAUSE YOU DON'T FEEL MUCH OF A DIFFERENCE IS YOU BEING BLIND TO THE FACT THAT SOMEONE ELSE MAY FEEL THINGS DIFFERENTLY THAN YOU. Most...

    Let me know if you want me to delete all the THREAD HIJACKING that has happened as a result of MZ (TensorBH). BTW: I notice in more than dozens of threads how, regardless of the topic of the thread, MZ will come in with a comment that is totally off topic about equipment that just does not...

    They may be similar to some extent. But to tell someone who can tell the difference that they can't....well, that is a bit odd. And to tell someone you will bet him, and then to say, "but you only get 15 seconds to tell the difference" (perhaps 3-5 hits) when you are confident they can't tell...

    Just like BB, he is trying to fix the scenario so he can't be wrong. It is not worth wasting time with someone who behaves like this.
  15. Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

    Yeah. I think, like BB, he can't help it. I mean, I actually did hear him say something about how he can't understand why all the pros don't use some cheap Chinese rubber (that he liked for a few weeks and no longer uses) on his BH. :) I think his brain is wired that way and he has no clue...

    At some point, people are going to have to realize that, either MZ (TensorBH) is a bit of a troll, or he is really just unable to process certain information.....like, to me....it seems he may be a bit on the spectrum sort of like BB but without the technical education. I mean, it is okay...
  17. Cheap alternative to D05?

    Yep. The OP's question is a fantasy question. If there was something just like D05 but inexpensive, there are a lot of people who would be using it. :)
  18. Tenergy for $42?

    Another way of looking at it: if a company is trying to make a product that performs as close to Tenergy as they can but putting their company's name on it, so you can contact them if something goes wrong, they are acting as a responsible company. If a company makes a product that is a...
  19. Tenergy for $42?

    Yep. I don't know the boundaries of the region they are allowed to sell within. It is also possible they stopped selling Butterfly products. But, I somehow doubt it.
